Hello, Nat here.
2
Let's see what's making news.
3
There's been some big news in the world of AI, as some experts reckon it could lead to the end of humanity as we know it.
4
Don't worry about that, that's Joe.
5
He'll tell you about it.
6
Do you see what I did just then?
7
That might be your first reaction upon hearing
8
that researchers from some big AI companies are warning that the tech could wipe out humanity within the next decade.
9
Well, this week, three current and former AI researchers did say exactly that, but that's not the whole story.
10
See, it all kicked off with a post from this guy, Jacob Coxon, saying he quit working with OpenAI and Anthropic
11
because he claims the companies are developing superintelligence without any plan for if things start getting out of hand.
12
Then Evan, who's currently in charge of keeping Anthropic's AI safe, agreed.
13
And even said he reckons there's a 10 % chance of humanity being in trouble within the next decade.
14
Followed by another post from an Anthropic colleague, Samuel, saying they can't really program AI the way they want.
15
These guys also say that AI isn't a threat in its current form, but what they're concerned about is the future, if more rules and safety measures aren't put in place.
16
That's something more than 1 ,300 employees from multiple AI companies agreed in a statement to the US government signed in July.
17
OpenAI and Anthropics say they agree more guardrails are needed, and they're improving their own safety efforts in the meantime.
18
Sunscreen is making headlines once again, with the manufacturer behind 20 recalled products now being sued in federal court.
19
Last year, we told you about 20 sunscreens pulled from shelves after a
20
big investigation found a bunch of SPF ratings were lower than advertised.
21
All of them used the same base formula, made by Wildchild Laboratories.
22
Now, one of the affected brands, Ultraviolet, is suing Wildchild for $7 million over what it's calling misleading and deceptive conduct.
23
The case is a little up in the air, though, because Wildchild actually went into liquidation in August, meaning the company is being wound up.
24
Its assets were sold to a new company with the same CEO as Wildchild, but that company is firmly denying it was set up to avoid responsibility.
25
The Opals have just made it through to the FIBA Women's World Cup quarter -final.
26
Michelle has that and more in sport.
27
In a game that came right down to the sirens...
28
It's so brutal for Italy!
29
..the Opals came out on top, working their way into a quarter -final at the FIBA World Cup.
30
With a 20 -point lead at three -quarter time, it looked like an Aussie win was in the bag.
31
In the corner, yes!
32
But the Italians slowly chipped away, equalising with a minute to go. And...
33
Isabel Borles, who nabbed 30 points, put the Aussies up by two in the final seconds.
34
And a lay -up by Italian Francesca Passa rolled off the rim after the final siren sounded.
35
The Opals will now face Spain in the quarterfinal.
36
They're gonna be crying their eyes out.
37
Elena Rybukkina has claimed victory in the quarterfinal of the US Open and, in doing so, has also claimed the world number one ranking,
38
ending Arena Sabalenka's 99 -week streak at the top.
39
Rybukkina will now face Coco Gauff in the semifinal.
40
Now meet Frio's rocker on the roof.
41
Provided I'm not getting rained on, it's pretty awesome.
42
Also known as Troy Nabobun, this guy has played to thousands of people from 42 metres up in the air on the roof of Perth Stadium.
43
Troy has played at every Dockers home game since 2019
44
and is now preparing to play to 60 ,000 Frio fans in the do or die clash against Geelong on Friday night.
45
Now it's time for some stories that'll make you crush your fingers and hope you were recording.
46
First up, to some impressive new entries that have been added to the Guinness Book of World Records, including the world's biggest hairdryer,
47
the world's tallest horse, and the world's narrowest car.
48
Nice one.
49
There are also new records set for the largest collection of frog -related items
50
and the largest collection of My Little Pony memorabilia.
51
Now to space, specifically China's Tiangong space station where these astronauts are playing ping -pong with a glob of water.
52
They recorded this video as part of a space lecture to
53
teach students about the mechanics of fluid in the microgravity of space.
54
Well that's all from us today we'll see you tomorrow bye for now.

你能學到什麼
這段影片能幫你提升兩項關鍵英語口語技能：一是在真實語境中捕捉資訊重點，比如快速聽懂AI領域的爭議、體育賽事的關鍵節點；二是模仿自然的口語節奏，影片中主持人切換話題時的流暢表達的，非常適合用來練習“shadow speak”（影子跟讀法）。此外，還能學會如何用簡潔的句子總結新聞事件，比如用“研究人員警告AI可能失控”來概括複雜內容。
注意這些發音現象
影片裡有不少連讀和弱讀需要留意。比如“kicked off”連讀成/kɪkt ɒf/，“what's making news”中的“what's”弱讀為/wɒts/。還有“10 % chance”中的“%”讀作“percent”時，尾音/t/會輕化。這些連讀和弱讀能讓你的口語更像母語者，也是“shadowspeak”練習中需要重點模仿的部分。
像母語者一樣表達
想要說好英語，節奏和重音很重要。影片中主持人在強調關鍵資訊時會加重語氣，比如“10 % chance of humanity being in trouble”中的“10 %”和“trouble”。練習時可以用“shadow speech”方法，跟著影片逐句跟讀，注意模仿這種重音模式。另外，主持人切換話題時的自然過渡，比如“Now meet Frio's rocker on the roof”，這種流暢的銜接也值得學習，能讓你的口語更連貫。通過這些練習，你的英語口語會越來越地道，“英語口語練習”也會變得更有效率。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | There's been · have just made · has claimed |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的 | aren't put · are needed · being wound |
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
